Chapter 23 The Struggling Boy

But it was obvious that Li Dong was overthinking. How could he meet such an extremely rare genius so easily? Moreover, such geniuses had basically been discovered by the Extreme Martial Arts School or the Thunder and Lightning Martial Arts School and entered the elite training camp.

Qi Fei and Yun Luo are just too special. In fact, they are both old, and their aptitude for cultivation might be too ordinary at the beginning. They are the type of late bloomers. Perhaps they had to wait until they became junior generals before they had the money to buy advanced secret skills and reach their current level.

In the Devouring World, talent is important, but opportunity is equally important. Without endless opportunities, it is impossible to grow quickly. Most of the time, even those who achieve success late in life cannot achieve it, and their intelligence becomes mediocre like everyone else.

"Perhaps this is also a hidden ability of mine. My talent is 'getting stronger through fighting', but I also have the ability to detect other people's special talents, of course, they are all related to fighting. Look, I have discovered two great talents, Qi Fei and Yun Luo. That 'heavy swordsman' Ding Xu can barely be considered one, after all, his physical strength increase and swordsmanship level are stronger than most of the new students in the 'Global Elite Training Camp'!"

Li Dong was thinking in his heart and was in a very good mood.

In the Devouring World, the growth of strength is naturally very important, but that is only at the grassroots level. In the eyes of the top leaders, what matters most are the understanding of the laws, state of mind and will, which are the keys to reaching the top level.

For example, at the level of "Hong" and "Thor", they have already looked at the problem from the top of the world. They are not looking at a mere war god-level strongman or even a congressman, but a person who may be on par with them or even surpass them.

After all, with what Hong and Thor had gained from the remains of cosmic civilization, they could already train war god-level masters in large numbers, and even at a price, it wouldn't be a problem to create a group of planetary-level powerhouses.

But such masters are meaningless, so 'Hong' attaches great importance to the trial tower and combat power increase. If certain standards are reached, 'Hong' is even willing to give amazing rewards.

"With Yunluo's strength, it should be enough for Hong to grant him a dragon blood-level treasure. Unfortunately, Yunluo, at this level, cannot even get in touch with Hong. A low-level person doesn't understand Hong's intentions at all!"

Li Dong sighed.

This is actually reflected in the original work. For example, Luo Feng's power increase has reached '2.8'. This power increase is better than many two- or three-year veterans of the Extreme Martial Arts Gym's 'Global Elite Training Camp'. However, because Luo Feng is inferior in other aspects, the special envoy 'Yang Hui' who came to inspect Luo Feng actually thought that Luo Feng had only a glimmer of hope of passing the test.

This is obviously a problem of vision, and he dared to make a conclusion without even considering how long Luo Feng had been truly trained!
As a result, within less than half a year, Luo Feng made great progress after receiving systematic training, and quickly reached the top talent level of the 'Global Elite Training Camp'. Coupled with his extraordinary ability as a psychic and the adventure he encountered in Kirishima later, he quickly graduated from the 'Global Elite Training Camp'.

Therefore, thinking of the exaggerated rise of the Devouring protagonist Luo Feng, Li Dong knew that his current seemingly terrifying improvement was actually nothing at all.

Even his current real combat power probably has no advantage over Luo Feng, who has just become a warrior.

At the 'apprentice level' stage, the advantage of a psychic master is simply too great.

It is normal that a mid-level warrior cannot defeat a spiritualist with the strength of a junior warrior.

"I have to fight as hard as I can and I absolutely cannot let my guard down!"

Thinking of this, even though the wound was aching slightly, Li Dong forced himself to overcome the clamor of his body, and then put all his mind into fighting the opponent behind him.

Li Dong faced every subsequent opponent with a very positive attitude, which allowed him to take advantage of almost every opponent!
In the more than three hours in the morning, Li Dong only increased his punching strength by more than a thousand kilograms. Although there was more time in the afternoon, more than five hours, Li Dong encountered two powerful men, Qi Fei, the 'Burning Gun', and Yun Luo, the 'Swift Wind Gun', at the beginning, which consumed a lot of his physical strength.

He was seriously injured in the battle with Qi Fei, but Li Dong subsequently fought more than twenty opponents in a row and was almost unconscious. Only then did he defeat the last opponent with great difficulty.

This resulted in his gains in the afternoon's fight being extremely astonishing, with his punching power increasing to nearly three thousand kilograms!

"25268KG!"

After returning to the community villa at night, Li Dong took a short rest and immediately tested his punching strength. Looking at the numbers appearing on the screen of the punching strength tester, Li Dong smiled happily.

He immediately pulled out a practice knife and continued to practice desperately.

His current progress is amazing, but when he thinks of the incredible rise of the protagonist Luo Feng, as well as the subsequent crises and the various cruelties after leaving the earth and reaching the universe, Li Dong simply does not allow himself to relax.

What little he has achieved now is nothing. By the standards of the universe, he is just a struggling apprentice-level ant. His level cannot be compared with that of ordinary earthlings who have "never seen the world". Instead, he should stand at the perspective of the universe.

If you don’t know how to work hard now, then just give up struggling, be a passerby like a salted fish, and just lie down.

This is naturally something Li Dong would never allow!

boom!
After being exhausted to the limit, he almost fainted, then struggled to start practicing the 'Five Hearts Towards Heaven Cultivation Method' to cultivate his genetic energy. In this state, cultivation would naturally be twice as effective with half the effort.

Even without the guidance technique to stimulate cell potential and increase cell "appetite", Li Dong's practice effect is amazing.

So when he tested his punching strength again, it reached 25302 kg! "That's it. If you work hard, you will definitely reap sweet fruits. And I have the talent for it!"

Li Dong smiled, then took a quick shower and went to rest.

Pushing himself to the limit twice or even three times a day is a heavy burden for him. He must get enough sleep. Only in this way can he recover quickly and have the body to continue fighting the new day.

In the following time, Li Dong never encountered a powerful intermediate-level genius again, and because the number of intermediate-level generals in the entire Northwest Base City was limited, he soon could only fight against those high-level fighters or even intermediate fighters.

After all, he had been generous before, allowing warriors of other levels who had never fought against him to be included in the sequence, and even senior students were not spared.

Of course, with Li Dong's current strength, it is too easy to deal with these people. He can easily squeeze them to the limit in just a dozen seconds or even a few seconds.

Looking at these warriors and even senior students from a higher perspective, Li Dong had a new feeling, and it became easier to instruct and oppress them.

Fortunately, for low-level opponents, as long as they are new opponents, no matter how weak they are, Li Dong can still obtain one ten-thousandth of their strength.

This is what is called lack of quality, so make up for it with quantity!

With Li Dong's current strength, it would take less than a minute to fight against any strong junior warrior, and on average it would only take thirty seconds.

For advanced fighters, it only takes about six seconds.

For an intermediate fighter, it only takes about four seconds.

For a junior warrior, it only takes three seconds.

And the advanced students and those quasi-warriors who barely meet the standard only need two seconds.

If it is lower, then it will not be of much significance, as they will not be able to discover their own shortcomings and correct them.

Although Li Dong wants to become stronger quickly, he definitely does not just treat these opponents as tools. He hopes for a win-win situation!

And in such a crazy fight, Li Dong's progress was surprisingly not slow, although there was almost no progress in the realm of swordsmanship and the level of body skills. After all, the level of these opponents could no longer inspire Li Dong's progress, but only consolidated his foundation to a terrifying level.

However, Li Dong's progress in physical fitness is quite obvious. He can even increase his punching strength by nearly 3,000 kilograms in a day.

Time passed quickly, and three days later, Li Dong had already reached the strength of a high-level general, but Li Dong did not show it at all, and continued to madly continue the myth of the magical boy.

Every opponent who has played against Li Dong has improved to varying degrees. The most important thing is that it has broken the bottleneck of their exhausted potential, giving them room for improvement again.

Therefore, under Li Dong's crazy fighting, the warriors in the Northwest Base City, whose potential was exhausted every day, actually reached a new level.

All the major forces were watching with red eyes. Fortunately, the Extreme Martial Arts School did not eat alone. Although it was inevitable to give up some profits to the Extreme Martial Arts School, the warriors of their martial arts school could also fight against Li Dong, which meant that they didn't have to bother to appease these warriors.

Time flies quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it is the end of August.

On this day, Li Dong rarely continued the battle time he had set.

"Everyone, I will take part in the warrior combat test tomorrow, so today is the last day of the battle. After the warrior combat test, I will also take part in the wilderness adventure and fight monsters. So tonight, I will continue until after seven o'clock and really fight to the limit. I hope you will give the opportunity to those warriors who can no longer make progress!"

Li Dong announced loudly.

In fact, because of Li Dong's crazy fighting, almost all the warriors below the high-level generals in the entire Northwest Base City have fought with him. After all, Li Dong's efficiency is too high, especially after his strength breakthrough, those subsequent intermediate generals could not pose much threat to him and could not consume much of his physical strength at all.

He broke through his limits again and again, and even pushed himself into coma three times a day. Under such circumstances, Li Dong not only developed amazing willpower, but his physical strength was also far beyond that of masters of the same level.

And now Li Dong’s strength has also reached an astonishing level!
